Duke University's iGEM team consists of 6 undergraduate students, 2 graduate students, and 2 professors. Due to the high costs and inefficiency of the process of cloning a gene, the DUKE iGEM team has invented a new procedure which lowers costs and increases efficiency. This method, Circular Polymerase Extension Cloning* (CPEC), saves time as well, since this method does not involve ligation or restriction enzymes. The rising costs of the current method of producing biodegradable plastics has hindered its widespread use; however, this year's IGEM team has discovered a more efficient pathway to produce these biodegradable plastics. With this team's determination and motivation, they would like to present their two projects:

CPEC applied to biobricks & Biodegradable Plastic Synthesis Pathway in E. coli



*This method has been published and cited. View the paper here

What is CPEC?

Circular Polymerase Extension Cloning (CPEC) is the development of a much simplified sequence-independent cloning technology based entirely on the polymerase extension mechanism. This method extends overlapping regions between the insert and vector fragments to form a complete circular plasmid. An extremely simple theory, CPEC piggybacks PCR in splicing genes. The gene insert is modified to have ends that overlap with the ends of the linearized vector and both have similar melting temperatures. The insert and vector are placed within a PCR machine in the absence of primers. Denaturation separates the double-stranded insert and vector and the overlapping ends anneal. Polymerase extension mechanism is then used to complete the plasmid. Using this method, we are able to quickly assemble a metabolic pathway consisting of multiple enzymes and regulatory elements for the production of a biocompatible as well as biodegradable plastic polymer in E. coli.

What are benefits?

The process of high-throughput cloning is bottle necked at the restriction and ligation stages. A combination of high costs, requirements for restriction site specific enzymes and general inefficiency of the process makes cloning on a large combinatorial gene library inviable. Circular Polymerase Extension Cloning (CPEC) addresses this issue by eliminating the need for restriction and ligation enzymes and thereby streamlining and condensing the procedure into the duration of 5 minutes.

Advantages/Disadvantages of BioBricks

  • BioBrick parts can be incorporated in E. coli , due to its common interphase.
  • BioBrick parts are not easily made due to its site-specific cutting of the plasmid.

Standardized CPEC

We will apply CPEC in the construction of a multi-component plasmid containing biobricks. Previous Duke iGEM projects have yielded the genes in a metabolic pathway that synthesizes poly(3HB-co-4HB), a biodegradable plastic, in E. coli. We will transform those genes into biobricks, with sticky ends, and efficiently combine them in a vector using CPEC.

Biodegradable Plastic Synthesis Pathway in E. coli

Polyhydroxyalkanoic acids (PHA), naturally occurring storage polymers found in a variety of bacteria, have received increased attention for their potential use as bioplastics that are both biodegradable and reduce reliance on petroleum-based plastics. In particular, the copolymer poly(3-hyroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate), or poly(3HB-co-4HB), which combines the 3HB and 4HB polymers from different bacteria (Figure 2 shows the pathway), has elastic properties ideal for a wide range of thermoplastic applications. The high cost of PHA, however, is the biggest impediment to widespread use of bioplastics. Moreover, poly(3HB-co-4HB) pathways developed so far in E. coli have yielded undesirably low and unpredictable 4HB-to-3HB ratios.

Thus, this project aims to develop a more efficient biopathway for poly(3HB-co-4HB) while increasing the 4HB monomer composition predictably. It was hypothesized that optimizing codon permutations of the phaC gene would greatly increase affinity of PHA synthase to the 4HB monomer. To date, the phaCAB and cat2 operons have been cloned into pUC19 and PCR Blunt II-TOPO vectors for successful independent production of the 3HB and 4HB polymers (Figure 4). Ligation and transformation into E. coli as six different recombinant constructs will soon be completed and allow for engineering of the poly(3HB-co4HB) biopathway. Future directions would be to test the hypothesis to see if phaC can be manipulated to increase 4HB-to-3HB composition in poly(3HB-co-4HB) and to increase efficient production of the bioplastic by engineering the FtsZ cell division protein to allow for cells to accumulate larger quantities of PHA granules before dividing. Ultimately, once an optimal biopathway is found, the goal would be to explore a model for mass production of PHA bioplastics so that novel applications of bioplastics can be feasible economically.

    • Anneal at Tm + 3°C. The Tm should be calculated with the nearest-neighbor method.
      • The extension time is usually calculated according to the shortest piece with 15 sec /kb if the cloning is not complicated. For example, if there is only one insert and is shorter than the vector, say, 600 bp, then I will use 15 sec for extension. Refer to the published paper for detailed information.

DNA Purification

Back to top

DNA purification Materials :

  • E.Z.N.A Gel Purification Kit (Omega Bio-Tek, Cat No. D2500-02 )
  • Water bath equilibrated to 55-65C
  • Microcentrifuge capable of at least 10,000 x g
  • Nuclease-free 1.5 ml centrifuge bottles
  • Absolute (95%-100%) ethanol
  • Protective eye-wear
  • Isopropanol (for fragments < 500 bp only)

Protocol:

1. Perform agarose gel electrophoresis to fractionate DNA fragments. Any type or grade of agarose may be used. It is strongly recommended, however, that fresh TAE buffer or TBE buffer be used as running buffer. Do not re-use running buffer as its pH will increase and reduce yields.

2. When adequate separation of bands has occurred, carefully excise the DNA fragment of interest using a wide, clean scalpel.

3. Determine the approximate volume of the gel slice by weighing it in a clean 1.5 ml microfuge tube. Assuming a density of 1 g/ml of gel, the volume of gel is derived as follows: A gel slice of mass 0.3 g will have a volume of 0.3 ml. Add equal volume of Binding Buffer (XP2). Incubate the mixture at 55C-60C for 7 min or until the gel has completely melted. Mix by shaking or inverting the tube every 2-3 minutes. Centrifuge the tube briefly to collect all the liquid to the bottom of the tube. Note: For DNA fragment less than 500bp, add 1 sample volume of isopropanol after the addition of Binding Buffer (XP2).

4. Apply up to 700 ul of the DNA/agarose solution to a HiBind® DNA spin column assembled in a clean 2 ml collection tube (provided) and centrifuge in a microcentrifuge at 8,000-10,000 x g for 1 min at room temperature. Discard the liquid. Re-use the collection tube in Steps 5-8. For volumes greater than 700 ul, load the column and centrifuge successively, 700 ul at a time. Each HiBind® spin-column has a total capacity of 25-30 ug DNA.

5. Discard liquid and add 300ul Binding Buffer. Centrifuge at 10,000 x g for 1 minutes.

6. Add 700 ul of SPW Buffer diluted with absolute ethanol into the column and wait 2-3 minutes. Centrifuge at 10,000 x g for 1 min at room temperature to wash the sample.

7. Discard liquid and repeat step 6 with another 700 ul SPW Buffer.

8. Discard liquid and, re-using the collection tube, centrifuge the empty column for 1 min at maxi speed (>13,000 x g) to dry the column matrix. This drying step is critical for good DNA yields.

9. Place column into a clean 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tube (not provided). Add 30-50 ul depending on desired concentration of final product) Elution Buffer (or sterile deionized water) directly to the center of the column matrix, then incubate for 1 minute. Centrifuge 1 min at maxi speed (>13,000 x g) to elute DNA. This represents approximately 70% of bound DNA. An optional second elution will yield any residual DNA, though at a lo

1. Remove competent cells from -70°C and place on ice. Thaw for 5-10 min.
2. Gently mix cells by tapping tube.
3. Add 1-50 ng DNA (1 ul control) into 50 ul cells. Swirl pipette tip while dispensing DNA. Gently tap tube to mix.
4. Place tubes on ice for 30 min.
5. Heat-shock cells for 45 sec in 42°C (water) bath. Do not shake!
6. Add 450 ul RT SOC Medium to each transformation reaction.
7. Incubate at 37°C for 1 hr with shaking at 225-250 rpm.
8. Spread on LB agar plates containing appropriate antibiotic.
9. Incubate plates at 37°C overnight (12-16 hrs).

6/26/09
Pick a colony from a streaked selective plate to inoculate 10 ml of LB medium supplemented with the appropriate selection antibiotic. Incubate 12-18 hrs at 37°C while shaking at 200-250 rpm.

6/27/09
Harvest bacterial culture by centrifuging at 8000 rpm (6800xg) in microcentrifuge for 2 min at RT. Decant supernatant and remove remaining medium.

Purification/Mini prep
1. Resuspend pelleted cells in 250 ul Resuspension Solution. Vortex or pipet up and down until no cell clumps remain.
2. Add 250 Lysis Solution and mix thoroughly by inverting tube 4-6 times until solution becomes viscous and slightly clear. Do not incubate for more than 5 min to avoid denaturation of supercoiled plasmid DNA.
3. Add 350 ul Neutralization Solution and mix thoroughly by inverting tube 4-6 times.
4. Centrifuge for 5 min to pellet cell debris and chromosomal DNA.
5. Transfer supernatant to spin column by decanting or pipetting. Avoid disturbing or transferring white precipitate.
6. Centrifuge for 1 min. Discard flow-through and replace column in collection tube.
7. Add 500 ul Wash Solution to spin column. Centrifuge for 30-60s and discard flow-through.
8. Repeat step 7.
9. Centrifuge for 1 min to remove residual Wash Solution.
10. Transfer spin column into fresh 1.7 ml microcentrifuge tube. Add 50 ul Elution Buffer to center of spin column membrane. Do not touch pipette tip to membrane. Incubate 2 min at RT and centrifuge for 2 min.
Note: An additional elution step with Elution buffer or water will recover residual DNA from the membrane and increase overall yield by 10-20%.
11. Discard column and store purified plasmid DNA at -20°C.
